LEGENDARY GUARDIAN 246 Chapter 246: Mid Grade Of The Gold Realm

With this Derik finally understood why even the nonchalant, independent cosmic spirits would bother to join hands with the creator against the other G.o.ds. The less people that had access to this G.o.d vein the more they can benefit from it, Derik finally understood why the cosmic spirit frantically tried to s.n.a.t.c.h Kalos soul from Derik after the mage died, he easily guessed that with the mid-grade of the gold realm cultivation, Kalos had acc.u.mulated a lot of power so the cosmic spirit was reluctant to obliterate his soul through the soul imprint at the time, giving Demos and Derik the chance to s.n.a.t.c.h the soul away and corrode it with their death aura to empower themselves.

"Life won't be as easy as it uses to be…" Derik sighed ruefully as he considered a few things.

"Hehehe… You just realized? That's cute… we have wasted too much time already… You have to get moving, I can't let my word be destroyed by a bunch of greedy old fools, just like they destroyed theirs" Demos said with a clenched fist.

"Hehehe… That's what I wanna hear! We have a chance to fix our broken relations.h.i.+p, you help me keep my people safe… and I will help you protect this world… Do we have a deal?" Derik laughed lightly while sticking out his hand towards Demos.

"Don't be dumb child… you will serve your purpose, whether you like it or not… You are not yet qualified to bargain with me… Just do your own part well and I will consider aiding your people at a critical hour…" Demos voice faded with his body as he spoke.

Derik on his own part was not annoyed that the angel of death called him a child and claimed he wasn't qualified to bargain with him, instead he chuckled lightly and gazed at Demos fading figure, giving him a slight nod. By the time the archangel had vanished, only Derik and his army of the dead was left in the domain. He quickly sat in a cross-legged position and began to draw power from the life force of all the orcs he had killed, trying to force a breakthrough. This process was extremely delicate and a reasonable amount of effort and concentration is required to breakthrough.

Five days later…

Bang!

Bang!!

Bang!!!

Boooooom!!!!

The empty s.p.a.ce around Derik exploded repeatedly, overshadowing his resounding waves of laughter that shook the domain. His eyes were like a pair of black holes which could definitely consume anything it gazes at, while his black hair had mysteriously grown longer, reaching his waists. Derik's surging aura was soon suppressed successfully and the excited look on his face never vanished!

After his short discussion with Demos, Derik's knowledge about this life has reached a profound realm where almost nothing can surprise him. He knew the secrets of this world and the intentions of this magical world for him and the other guardian spirit hosts. 

The guardian spirits may be bound to this world but they have traces of the creators power, conflicting with that of the world, that's why it's a thousand times harder for them to cultivate and grow stronger! Since the guardian spirits represent the various mysterious powers that this world possesses, the world decided to use them as a means to fulfill its purpose and create new G.o.ds. To achieve this, the concept of hosts had to be used to help make sure its inheritance reached the chosen people. In the past Derik always thought that he will never be able to reach Demos level due to his position as just a host, he always believed he would never be as good as the angel of death, but after his breakthrough, Derik realized how dumb his thoughts were!

As direct chosen ones of this world their power over the elements were so profound that he felt that even Demos is inferior to him. With this breakthrough, the purity of his death element had already surpa.s.sed that of Demos!

He could feel it!

Even though the guardian spirit was far stronger because of the difference in realm, Derik was very sure that when he reaches the guardian spirits realm, he will definitely surpa.s.s it. Where Derik was seated, he looked like a black hole ready to consume all life force around, pure black aura diffused from his body, effectively hiding his figure. Even though looked the same as ever, a pair of wings could be seen in his shadow even though it couldn't be seen on his main body. Each time Derik exhaled, he released a black mist from his nostrils and black cracks could be seen all over his body, it looked like his skin was going to peel off anytime soon.

"I can no longer be considered human…" Derik could effectively feel the changes in him, he didn't need anyone to tell him how bad the effect of his power was having on his body.

He raised a finger up and a green ball of skull-shaped flames appeared at the tip of his finger, dancing around wildly.

"My abilities are beginning to have traces of life in them… I really have taken a step forward towards the realm of the G.o.ds… I too will become a G.o.d!" Derik said with furrowed eyebrows.

He was about to get out when he heard Kalos voice echoing in his ear. His eyes narrowed and his razor shaped teeth gritted together as the spatial mage reported the current situation of the empire to him.

"I decided not to disturb since you were busy with your cultivation…" Kalos said.

"What happened?" Derik asked coldly.

"After the incident with those green beast invaders, the other masters got anxious because they didn't lend you a hand and when the news of the life guardian spirits hosts breakthrough spread, they knew you would breakthrough soon and they finally made a move after they confirmed you are away" Kalos explained softly.

Hearing this Derik didn't really find the situation surprising, his aggressive nature against all those who have wronged him is not something people could ignore. Its only natural for them to feel anxious after they watched him and Cyrus struggle against an attack that can easily wipe out his sect in one swoop. Also, the fact that he and Cyrus left the chaotic battlefield without even sparing them a glance confirmed their suspicion that Derik was not really happy with them.

Honestly, Derik was planning to confront them concerning the matter after his breakthrough, but he really didn't have any intentions of carrying out any offensive activities against them. But it seems they decided to make a move before him!

"What going on right now?" Derik struggled to control his anger while speaking to Kalos.

"They have called a meeting for all representatives and all gold realm masters, they plan to kick you and the life mage out of the a.s.sembly and have you guys dissolve your forces and serve under them the representatives directly….They seem confident in their move since they have more masters on their side, they strongly believe they can subdue you all" Kalos answered slowly.

"They dare make a move against us while I am away! Someone has to die for this!!!" Derik bellowed furiously and vanished from his domain the next instant!
